Who will be getting one ? I am tempted to get the belkin one installed from the Apple store when I go pick up my iPhone 8, but i am a little concerned about the touch sensitivity and the color with a screen protector

I would recommend Zagg’s InvisibleShield Glass+.
The Belkin is known to not last long nor protect as well as a screen protector should.

Belkin one at apple is garbage. I had one and it scratches easily AND it chipped and cracked on its own. Don't buy it please

Surprisingly the best glass screen protector I've used is the Yootech from Amazon. You get 2 in a pack for $7/8. I still have one from my 7 Plus so I'll probably just use it.

I used to swear by Zagg bc of quality and lifetime guarantee until I realized I’m careful with my phones and never had to replace a screen protector, even when they were the flimsy material before glass. So no more $25+ screen protectors for me.

Last year I purchased a 2 pack of the Max Boost tempered glass protectors for the 7 plus off Amazon for ~$8 and the 2nd one is still sitting in the box.

I’m definitely going that route again for the iPhone X when I get mine.

I have never put a screen protector on any iPhone I’ve ever owned and I’m not about to start now, but that’s Just Me, D. I don’t worry about damaging my iPhone and that’s probably the reason I don’t damage them - that and Apple Care +...

Zagg’s InvisibleShield has been the best choice, Belkin has been my second choice. After that any 2 for $10 on Amazon work pretty well.

No screen protector for me. Haven't used one since the 5 & I just don't feel I need to.
Agreed! I briefly had one on my 1st iPhone, thought it looked terrible and haven't used one since. I don't use a case either. I've dropped my iPhone 6 a few times, it's got scuffs on 3 of the corners of the body and yet the screen is pristine!
